I was lying on my bed watching the ceiling fan spin. My right arm was resting on my forehead while I sighed for the hundredth time. My whole world was shaken by the revelation about my past. I couldn’t even process the fact that I, Natalie Adams, was meant to be a Beta, but what made me sad was finally hearing the truth that my parents were not my parents. I mean, something deep, deep, deep inside told me that they weren’t, but I hoped it wasn’t real and that my inner voice was mistaken. As I lay there, I tried digesting all that was said to me and honestly, I didn’t know how to handle it, especially finding out how my real mom was killed. My own Father took her life. A tear rolled on the side of my cheek and I rubbed hard to wipe it off. That man was no Father to me. He was going to pay for what he did to her. Who does that to their mate?! Summer said she had scars on her body that didn’t heal well. I had one objective and that was to avenge her death and I would make sure of it.
I was staring at the wall in the Men’s restroom. A few minutes passed before he spoke, “When did you get back?” I didn’t answer. “Natie–” I growled, cutting him off, “Natalie to you.” I know it's childish. “NO!” He turned me around. “Do you know how long I waited and waited? You never called me or even thought to text me? I thought I meant something to you! You made it seem that way. I told you I liked you and that I wanted to get to know you and…” He pulled his hair in frustration. I glared at him with a murderous look. I couldn’t say anything and instead pulled my arm away from his touch because the sparks were blasting intently up my arm. The sparks from before were nothing compared to the ones I was feeling right now. Anger does obstruct your senses. “DON’T. TOUCH. ME.” I said through my teeth. He stepped forward, closing the distance between us. “You come near me again, and I’ll reject you.” He frowned and hesitated to step back, but he did. Zoe growled pacing back and fort
It didn’t take long with Ms. Slate, but she was a bit nosey and I only told her what she needed to know. After our conversation, I headed to my locker and that’s when I heard my best friend whom I hadn’t seen in ages run up to me and knock me down on the ground, literally. “NATIE!!!!!” She squealed. She bombarded me with kisses all over my face. I couldn’t stop giggling. “I missed you too, Evie! I don’t think Jerry will like the fact that his girl is kissing another girl though.” I chuckled. “Oh, I don’t know, if anything I find it as a turn-on,” Jerry said laughing out loud. Of course he would, he’s a man. “I’m so thrilled to see my girl happy again. She missed you, Natalie, even I missed you.” He said as he gave us a helping hand. “Thank you. I missed you all so much too, Jerry. Thank you for taking care of my best friend here while I was gone.” I said, squeezing my friend so hard. “So…did you find your mate? Your birthday was last month, so did you find him!?” Her question surp
I was surprised to see how Christian behaved during class. He made several jokes, making me snort a couple of times, almost getting me in trouble with the teacher. I have never seen this side of him and admittedly, I enjoyed it. I wish he was more like this before he began to pursue me. I hope that whoever is mated to him will make him happy and vice versa. I wished for him–happily ever after. The bell finally rang and we were heading to the lunchroom. I was laughing at Christian’s remark regarding the teacher. Zeo and Eric were stunned at Christian’s behavior with me because it was such a huge difference from before. “Uh Natie, why is Ivan wearing his gym clothes?” I turned around and I saw Ivan coming down the hallway. I took a deep breath and inhaled his delicious scent. ‘He took a shower?’ Zoe snickered. ‘He did and I’m glad. He looks good in his gym uniform, but I won’t tell him.’ His black hair was still wet from the shower and I loved the look it gave him. My eyes roamed to
I held onto his hand the entire time. I could sense her uneasiness as I walked into her class. I felt the glares of other students, but I kept my cool. Ms. Martinez is a wolf and I am sure by now, she figured that Ivan and I are mates. Never have I ever asked my parents or anyone about how the mate bond works, making me wish I had. I was so occupied with my training and school that it never occurred to me that it was as important as a sex education class. I thought turning 18 was just finding your mate and feeling loved by the one person who was chosen to be with you forever. Boy was I wrong. Damn, those sparks, more like electricity, were intense and doing their job. Now that I think about it, whatever I felt before when I was with Ivan, intensified tenfold. The moment we were close to each other, the bond made my senses stronger. Right now, I feel like my fury is more powerful. I did feel a sexual tension between us both. Holding his hand was doing things to my body and I could
Landon was checking me out with a mega-watt smile. Christian growled, making Landon take his gaze away from me and face him, “So this is the famous, Natalie Adams, the one I’ve been hearing so much about?” I cocked an eyebrow. ‘Famous? So much?’ Ivan did say he was friends with him. He stepped forward and acknowledged the rest. When he stood in front of me, he held out his hand and I gripped it giving it a shake. His hand lingered a few seconds too long. “So you're my Beta?” He asked, grinning. Werewolves are all good-looking, but Alphas and the rest of the high ranks were even more alluring. Landon was handsome. He had chocolate-brown hair, with dark bushy eyebrows. His eyes were dark brown, with a sharp jawline, and medium plump lips. He was 6 '4 a few inches smaller than Ivan and Christian. Landon gave me a very young Steven McQueen vibe. “Yes,” I responded. “Styles!” Christian warned. Landon pulled his hand away, “Calm down Allen, I’m just intrigued here. I’ve heard so much o
Well sh*t…okay! Landon Styles and Elle Wilson are fated. Christian smiled and looked relaxed. I was happy for them, but that girl needed a serious attitude adjustment. At least I can use the fact that she slept with Christian against her if she tries to act like a b*tch. I don’t know how she’ll react when she finds out I’m Landon’s Beta. I’m sure that would scare her. Landon would be pissed if he found out she slept with Christian so many times. ‘What’s that saying Natie? Used and abused? No…how about it’s too loose to use?’ She cackled. I swear Zoe is a trip. I snorted and Christian looked at me. I shrugged and gave him the ‘what’ look. He shook his head. I’m sure he was happy to get rid of her. ~Landon’s POV~ Isn’t this my lucky day? I finally found my mate, she was beautiful too. Maybe not as gorgeous as Natalie, but she was beautiful. She had blonde hair, blue eyes, and a kissable pout aching to be bit and sucked. She had huge boobs and by the looks of it, she took good care o
The relationship between your Beta, Gamma, and Delta should always be strong. Not only am I protecting them and their families, I have to make the right decisions and do everything in my power to keep my entire pack safe. They each have a job. My Beta protects me and has my back no matter what. The Gamma protects his Luna, my mate with his or her life. The Delta helps keep order and trains our pack warriors. Deep inside, I know that if Natalie had stayed in my pack, I would have trusted her to have my back and others. I can sense her power, strength, and how agile she is. ‘F*ck Tyrant, she’s gorgeous too.’ I paced back and forth in my office. ‘Yeah, she is. It would have been perfect if she was with us instead. She is tough and capable. Ivan is a lucky bastard.’ Tyrant commented. ‘Imagine Natalie and Nathan here together in our pack. We would be strong. Enough, we need to speak to our Father and let him know what is going to happen. This can not wait anymore.’ We needed to prepare o
